lyrics

Come to me
One last time to me
I have let my cannons down

Come to me
Don’t run from me
I can’t stand to send you away while there’s still tears in your eyes
I lashed out at the world and somehow you got caught in the blows
I’ve come to show

That you haven’t lost my heart
That the strength you knew in me
Has not vanished in the fray
For I know you must be free

Let me hold you in my arms
Though our time here will be short
Kiss me once before you go
This one’s for the road

Come to me
One last time to me
We don’t have much time to spare
It won’t be long before you sink beyond the horizon, my dear

I knew from the day you arrived,
one day you’d have to go
But even so

To love you brought me more strength
than I ever knew I had
To reach you come what may
Is the thought that held me fast

Which is why I stand before you,
Now I know you won’t forget
Keep it safe and hold it close
This one’s for the road
